Meginness, J. F., Otzinachson: Or, a History of the West Branch Valley 
of the Susquehanna, Philadelphia: Henry B. Ashmead, 1857:
  The first paper started in Lock Haven was called The Eagle, by 
William A. Kinsloe.  This was in August, 1838. It advocated the 
formation of a new county to be called "Eagle."  When the county of 
Clinton was formed in 1839, the name was changed to The Clintonian.  At 
the close of the campaign of 1840, it was suspended.  In a short time 
it was resuscitated, however, by Robert McCormick and J. B. G. Kinsloe 
- brother of the former - and the name changed to Clinton County Whig.  
Kinsloe soon went out, and was succeeded by I. L. Gara, who remained 
with McCormick for a short time.  In 1843, W. P. Coulter and John W. 
Ross became the publishers.  In the spring of 1845, Ross was alone, 
Coulter having retired.
